A loose dog is the thing that actually goes wrong on a drive. Our dog car seatbelt clips into your car's existing seatbelt buckle and attaches to your dog's harness, so they can sit or lie down comfortably but cannot climb into the footwell or onto your lap.

This dog car seatbelt is a restraint, not crash protection, and we would rather be straight with you about that. It solves the everyday problem — a dog moving around the cabin while you drive. It is not crash-tested, and not a substitute for a crash-tested harness or crate if that is what you need.

Car, truck or SUV — the dog car seatbelt clips into most standard seatbelt buckles or over a headrest, and comes in a choice of six colours to match your dog's style.

No need to pick a size — simply adjust the length to fit small, medium or large dogs. Keep it on the short side rather than long, and always attach it to a harness rather than a collar so no pressure ever reaches your dog's neck.

Keep a dog car seatbelt in the glovebox for the school run, the vet trip and the Saturday drive to the beach — one less thing to think about at the wheel.
